Cardiology Center - Diagnostic Center
We have an angiology department, which specializes in vascular and circulatory disorders. Our team consists of experts in the diagnosis and treatment of vascular diseases, such as varicose veins, peripheral artery disease, and deep vein thrombosis, among others.
Angiology is a medical specialty that focuses on the study, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases affecting blood and lymphatic vessels.
At Hospital Angeles Tampico, the angiology department offers a wide range of services, including diagnostic tests such as Doppler ultrasound, angiography, and phlebography, as well as treatments such as vascular surgery, sclerotherapy, and stent placement.
You should see a vascular specialist if you experience symptoms such as leg pain when walking, swelling in the legs or feet, leg ulcers that won’t heal, changes in skin color, or if you have a family history of vascular disease.
Recovery time after an angiography procedure can vary depending on the type of procedure performed and the patient's specific condition. In general, it is recommended to rest and avoid strenuous physical activity for at least a few days after the procedure.
Angiography procedures are generally safe, but as with any medical procedure, there are some potential risks. These may include infection, bleeding, blood clots, damage to blood vessels or surrounding tissues, allergic reactions to the contrast agents used in some studies, and complications related to anesthesia.
